Free-by-cyclic graphical discreteness conjecture

About 3 years old · traced to

Let FnF_n be the free group of rank nn, let ϕ\phi be an automorphism, and consider the free-by-cyclic group

Fn⋊ϕZ.F_n\rtimes_{\phi}\mathbb{Z}.

Assume that this group is one-ended and hyperbolic, and has trivial JSJ decomposition. A group is graphically discrete when it has only trivial lattice envelopes.

Free-by-cyclic graphical discreteness conjecture. A one-ended, hyperbolic free-by-cyclic group Fn⋊ϕZF_n\rtimes_{\phi}\mathbb{Z} with trivial JSJ decomposition is graphically discrete.

The supplied text presents this as an open question among the paper's conjectures and gives no known cases or resolution.
